I got mine real cheap, like 9.99 at the Value Village thrift store, a Garmin C-550 Streetpilot with Bluetooth. The upgrades are free. You can find them on ebay. A cig lighter adaptor with built-in FM traffic info expands it's versatility,and you can use the touch screen to make phone calls via the Bluetooth in your cell phone.Robert 1982 Westfalia

That is a good deal.  The question is; how old is the map?  Magellan charges $80 for a map upgrade, so you're basically stuck with what's in it.  Never-the-less, it is a tempting deal.
